15 Easy Tips for Flawless Skin

Beauty editors reveal the tricks they use to treat their own skin.

HOW TO WEAR SUNSCREEN

· Choose a sunscreen that's marked "broad-spectrum," meaning it fights both burning UVB rays and wrinkle- and skin-cancer-causing UVA ones.
· Go with an SPF of at least 30 on a daily basis, and 45 when you're in the sun. Dermatologists say that women rarely apply enough sunscreen to get the full SPF listed on the bottle; a high SPF is a little extra insurance.
· Apply sunscreen right out of the shower instead of body lotion so you don't forget, and make sure to get every spot, including the tops of your feet, the crooks of your arms, and the backs of your hands. For your face, don't forget to coat your hairline, neck, ears, and earlobes.
· On days you'll be outside, pop an antioxidant supplement, like Heliocare, to give your sunscreen a little more protective muscle.
